Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Dedham

Love sitting by the fire with good food and being able to linger.

I visited on Valentine’s Day and loved the cozy ambiance with beautiful plant decorations. I ordered the 3 Valentine’s specials: the beet gnocchi, beet burrata, and cod dish, along with the cooked oysters. All were delicious though I was a bit disappointed with the beet burrata, as it had a very tiny amount of cubed beets and at first believed they forgot the beets on the dish. For dessert I had the tiramisu which was fantastic!

Food was delicious, and the service was top notch. We came for Valentines Day and it was busy but the management and servers were excellent and our food came out quickly and it was fresh and hot. The servers checked on us frequently. We split a pitcher of the white wine sangria, which was delicious. For appetizers we enjoyed the Coconut shrimp and pan fried dumplings, and for mains my husband had the meatloaf and I had the chicken piccata.

First time there and it certainly had that North End of Boston vibe; the share plate selection was really good, entrees prepared well with a nice presentation. Service was excellent and the entire restaurant was buzzing. I would say that Westwood has a nice neighborhood restaurant with the addition of Bar Cino; its location is close enough to Rte 128/95 that it can be a nice detour while travelling. Bon Appetito

My girlfriend and I both work in hospitality and came for an early Valentine's dinner since we have to work for it. Our waiter, Jimmy, was amazing, we ordered all of our food at once and asked Jimmy to pace it out using his judgement. We also asked for recommendations on a fruity/dry Wine pairing, which he did wonderfully and paired with multiple items we ordered. Everything was delicious and the oyster mushrooms were spectacular. To end our meal they brought us over a delicious digestivo and even got us a reservation downstairs at Hecate following our dinner. Amazing experiences thank you!
